  1. You can eat beef, I just want to make sure you know what you’re getting.
  2. Vegans put their hands and fingers on the food more then meat eaters do. I saw a vegan preparing a meal and they made sure each tiny bit was touched by them like they were fondling the food. They want you to eat what they touched with their fingers.
  3. Give the new passport, the old passport and the letter to immigration and hope they change it when you arrive. What else can you do? ????????‍♂️
  4. I don’t think so. The ones I have known seem to be lesbians.
  5. It’s common for Thais to say someone is just going home so it’s all ok. Kind of an out of sight out of mind thing.
  6. I have known some nasty vegans, but it’s only the females. Male vegans always seem peaceful and non-aggressive. ????????‍♂️
  7. Would be great to have some public seats around. I hate having to pay for every little thing or go into a bar to sit down. That’s one thing I never liked about Thailand. There’s no place to sit and relax like other countries without having to buy something. Need some public areas with benches, some parks with water fountains, places like that. Many other countries have seating all along the shoreline. Puerto Vallarta in Mexico is a good example. It’s not cost. A good metal or concrete bench with arms and a backrest can last for years. If “they” want to turn the city into a friendly destination seating is needed.
  8. People do this when someone passes even without the insurance. First thing on their minds is rushing in to collect valuables at the home and checking bank accounts. It’s pretty sad. Nobody trusts others to distribute things fairly.
  9. This is kind of like asking for a big diamond ring in the USA. Give me a huge ring or no marriage. If it’s a small ring she must really like him, etc, otherwise he presents it and gets shunned, crawls away in shame…
  10. Yeah right, they are also bringing a big money issue into the wedding ceremony putting cash and gold up on a platter and worshipping it. Is it a marriage ceremony or really a golden calf worshipping?
  11. I don’t think you’re really cut out for teaching. Maybe try sanitation or some profession where you work alone, like accounting.
  12. I think some people rent the gold to show at the ceremony then return it afterwards.
  13. A lot of people I think it’s just the pension. If they did arrive with savings they have spent it on women and partying, especially if they have been here for years. Saving does not seem to be a priority (I know this because almost everybody talks about how much things cost, not how they are saving). The question becomes why maintain a large savings if you’re retired and old??? Can’t take it with you.
  14. I don’t know what you are talking about. I never said that!
  15. Makes no difference who it is. Dating is one thing, "utilizing the services of prostitutes" is another. There's no grey area like guys like to believe. Someone is either there for the money, or not. It's not good or bad, just reality. Take money out of the relationship and you have your answer. Maybe this guy ran out of money and discovered that he was lonely all along?
  16. Guys who “utilize the services of prostitutes” are the loneliest guys around. It can be worse then just doing life solo. Same for the prostitute. Both are trying to provide something that’s not really there. It’s just an act.
  17. That’s good, but it’s hard to get out of that situation for most people once your in it. Lack of a stable address, etc makes it hard to arrange things and life kind of takes over. if it’s just a side trip to national parks I can understand.
  18. That’s great for you, but I’m not interested in “living out of a vehicle” in my 50’s as a permanent situation unless it’s just a camping trip. I can’t see that as a backup plan for me returning to the USA.
  19. Or they figured out a lot of Thai people are skint broke and the land gets transferred into their name push comes to shove???
  20. These guys never made it to Thailand. They are just skint unemployed, lost housing and hit the curb with whatever vehicle they could find. Los Angeles is filling up with these blokes camping in vehicles and out in the desert, places like slab city. I think the poster is from LA his handle is KhunLA.
  21. Is this a joke? I would do almost anything to grow up in the 80’s again. Was into the heavy metal scene in the sf Bay Area. Went to many shows at the corner tavern. Saw Metallica, slayer, exodus, venom, etc when they were still garage bands. Also, punk bands at Gilman street. Good times! Lots of drinking, craziness & general immortality!
  22. You could always camp free in the Walmart parking lots if finances are tight.
  23. If your a golfer, your a loser., George. ⛳️????️‍♂️
